Two of the Aviva Premiership's struggling sides meet at the Kassam Stadium on Sunday as London Welsh host bottom-placed Sale Sharks.
Welsh come into the match on a run of four consecutive defeats that has seen them slip to within six points of the drop zone.
Sale, who are still five points off safety, have enjoyed a recent resurgence in the league with two wins from their last three matches.
Gavin Henson, Alex Davies and Paulica Ion all return for the hosts, while Argentina international Julio Cabello makes his debut.
Dwayne Peel misses out for Sale through injury, but Will Cliff, Cameron Shepherd and Richie Gray all come into the team.
